You can look at life
Camouflage hate
think of the stars
and disengage love
spin it around
inside out upside down
and you will find
at the end of the matrix
stood a clown.
Khoisan Dec 2021
It is in the darkest time
of the world
that we seek
to find the light,
they are in the shadow
of our gifts
spoken or given,
say hello
share a smile
or give a hug,
we need to embrace
strange wisdom
simple expressions
of a word
called L💖VE.

With tender appreciation
worship the marks of marriage
loving her more and more
time after time.
Spend your time loving her
adore the creases skin is not a thing
remember the first time ever you saw her face.

Loved ones
had to untie
both ends of the rope
and LIVE with the tragedy
Suicide truly traumatic
Reach out and touch

We needed the walls in our lives to break, we needed the people in our lives to be permanent, we needed the ocean with us on our journey, we needed a path for nature to be rediscovered, we needed love to be able to get recognition, we needed more than just to be tagged along like a place to paste the scars of graffiti, we needed this crazy thing we call skin to earn respect and we needed this to be called a universal trend.

I can see the drops drip

There
by senses
inhaled darkness
emotional condenses
bursting at the seems
rain came a friend
slaughtering
dispair

Open your eyes

find solace
there

Are the Australian tied to the Kangaroo the great outback and the boomerang?
Are the African tied to the tassels of the Baobab tree the pyramid and the Nile crocodile?
Are the European tied to the red Carnation?
Are the Americas tied to the wings of the Eagle?
Are the Asians tied to the rice paddy the great wall the silk route and the Ganges?
Are the Antarctican tied to the polar bear?
Are the Oceanic tied to the deep blue sea?
Is humanity tied to this beautiful planet?

The Allusion of perfection
Khoisan Jun 2018
Though the rooms of her heart might be shattered
Her strong will and majestic grace remains resolute
She bore the remnants of ochre like tattoos on the walls of her body
As she cradled humanity's first born with promise
Her eyes bore the ravages of battles lost
Yet her reserves will lead us into the future as a blueprint from the beginning
And she will be called the matriarch angel of the universe

We have been lifted from silence
walk on the wild side if you dare

Shards of self
Lay scattered in the blood
Of our past
Seasons come and seasons go
Tongue upon steel
Tempered at the alter of the anvil
Into full bloom
Neither satisfied nor solemn
We must make a choice
Grace for the future
From the Masters voice
God is here
Where am I
Choices to make
God loves me
I love you
Enjoy your Sunday
GOD BLESS

Excitement,congrats, balloons pink or blue
Showers flowers laughter planned or unplanned
ladies bring gifts and men brought beer
Out of the womb they pop without fear
Is it a he or is it a she nine months of waiting
Finally free nurture them hug them but remember
                            T O LOVE THEM
                    U N C O N D I T I O N A L Y
Precious pearls tiny snowflakes unique tiny tots love them to bits

Return to sender
Drug addicts often
go to the extreme of extortion
beautiful kids
gets really messed up
and hurt themselves so bad just to get money and sympathy from their loved ones
while the drug merchant prosper
Don't get me wrong it is as well attempts of reaching out for help
in really extreme cases these kids
needs serious rehab.

We all leave when we grow up

In our quest to find a soulmate
Do we tread

How are we as individuals

The
whites
of their eyes
remain at a tilt
on the conscience of a child.
The catcher in the web
retain the illusion on the net
the mask of evil is hugely evident
and money in the spank
makes this poem highly irrelevant.
Internet ******* modern day prostitution Addictive explicit a plague of human dignity
the worlds oldest profession freely available
what about the mind of the innocent child.

I
pant at your sheer beauty
after the first sighting
in silence
I
crave and cradle your innocence
unnoticed
I
thirst to drink
from the source of your well
reluctantly
I
quiver a cowardice illusion
of the first move
from an awry smile of ignorance
I
steal your beauty and shred
Your body to pieces
unreachable you are torn from
a
silhouette desire
in
a damaged Magazine
Mind over matter ? Matter over mind

Khoisan Sep 2018
The bonfire was loaded
With exiting tales
Our forerunners legendary
Exploit's these daggers
Cut deep trenches in
Our mindseye we felt
Like the next generation
Of wrath true tales from
A culture of devil worshippers
Yet the tongue's wielding
The blade was non the wiser
Our innate minds chewd
Every word our lives Satan's
Recycling bin two five ten
Deaths and many generations
After we now realised that
We have to cut out the blade
From these forked tongued
Folk tales that whispers filth
Unto the unsuspecting ears
Of our beautiful children
Heroism emenating from
The subculture of criminality
And gangsterism must no
Longer be tolerated it have savaged
The Innocence of young lives
For far too long
I grew up in this filth God forbid I should have been a corpse myself
I have lost many friends because of
This generational sub cultural problems
Progress are slowly being made
Through various educational programmes
And community interventions
